Couldn't fault the hotel. Had our wedding here on 17th May 2012, Belkis was a gem. We didn't have to worry about a thing. From flowers & decor to getting us both to the ceremony on time! She did the lot. Beach is gorgeous, white sand, clear waters. Staff are all lovely, can't do enough for you. Waitress service by... More

This was my first trip to Varadero, and my Husbands first trip to Cuba. I had previously been to Cuba when I was 17 and stayed in Trinidad at a very low end resort, so I didn’t have a great outlook on Cuba and therefore had never gone back until this year. We travelled down with my sister and her... More

Nice hotel, very good service. Nothing to complain about. The beach is very narrow but the kids had enough room to play and make sand castles.

The Iberostar Varadero is an excellent hotel. It has all the basic amenities you could need, and the friendliest staff imaginable. The games they run are entertaining and are over in a brief amount of time. They have lots to do and offer a wide variety of drink options. The beach is lovely even though it is narrow. There is...

The service from all the staff we met was first class, special mention to Arlene who worked in the entertainment bar!! The entertainment was also really good for Cuba, a bit too much dancing... More

Accommodations: 4.5* - Rooms were great, each with a balcony. You may be able to see the ocean from the 3rd floor of some of the rooms, if your balcony backs onto the ocean. I would say the overall cleanliness of the rooms was pretty good. Housekeeping staff were friendly and stayed on top of services. There are many buildings... More

Spent 8 nights here, relaxing after a hectic three days staying in Havana. Perfect place to relax. Quality of the food was much better than I expected, and we much preferred dining in the buffet to any of the restaurants, more choice and less restrictions over when we could eat. Even though we went during low season, the themed restaurants... More
